The ABC/WAPO poll was an outlier. I think a purposefully crafted one to drum up enthusiasm for Obama and deflate us in the McCain camp. This race is close but people DO NOT believe big government is the answer. That is why huge majority DOES NOT support the bailout plan. That should be a testament more than any other to why McCain should stand up against this. I’d recommend he head back to Washington. Sarah can handle the campaigning. She is tough and her favorability ratings are still higher than all the other candidates in the race. Let her prove her metal.

If you did nothing else here, but apply Ras' percentages (R34/D39/I27), then the numbers are 49%-45%... Also, if you look at the underlying internals, most of the indies are lefty leaning, so that's good for another 1 or 2%... So, that brings us to nearly a tie...

I'm not too bent out of shape on the poll numbers, per se, cause they don't tell the whole story; however, the MSM is clearly trying to create an air of invincibility for Zero

The silver lining is... if McCain can take command in the debates, the next poll could show a huge swing towards McCain, and a Momentum shift.

the ABC poll apparently added 15% extra black people to “balance” their poll.

remember 95% does not indicate racism in voters...not.

It wasn’t an “outlier.” It was fraud, plain and simple. 38% Dems, 28% Republicans, and heavily oversampled blacks. Are you kidding? It’s outrageous that anyone would publish it, let alone publicize it.
